And Moses said : "
By this you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works ,
for I have not done them of my own will .
*
If these men die naturally like all men ,
or if they are visited by the common fate of all men ,
then the LORD has not sent me .
*
But if the LORD creates a new thing ,
and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them ,
and they go down alive into the pit ,
then you will understand that these men have rejected the LORD ."
*
Now it came to pass ,
as he finished speaking all these words ,
that the ground split apart under them ,
*
and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up ,
with their households and all the men with Korah ,
with all their goods .
*
So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit ;
the earth closed over them ,
and they perished from among the assembly .
*
Then all Israel who were around them fled at their cry ,
for they said , "
Lest the earth swallow us up also !"
